Majority of Iraqis want Bush veto on DemocRAT withdrawal plan
 
CBS News & AP,

4/27/2007 7:22:49 PM

Baghdad - Many Sunnis welcomed a U.S. congressional push to begin
withdrawing U.S. troops by Oct. 1, but one Shiite grocery store owner
expressed fear the move would ''leave Iraq in the hands of al Qaeda.''
Iraqis appear divided along sectarian lines over Thursday's Senate
approval of House-passed legislation calling for U.S. troops to begin
leaving Iraq by Oct. 1. /snip/ Majority Shiites and their Kurdish
allies, meanwhile, echoed the opinion of the Shiite-led government,
which warned the Oct. 1 start date was too soon.....



Quote

"The U.S. forces must stay in Iraq until Iraqi forces are really
qualified to face terrorists. I hope that Bush will use his veto."

Muhei Hadi, Baghdad municipal counselor

Midterm Elections
The situation: a deeply unpopular Republican President, derided
viciously in the press as an unsophisticated backcountry rube and an
ape, during a divisively unpopular war considered an idiotic wasteful
mistake and quagmire in which nothing but defeat was emerging; and the
Democrats, backed by disgruntled generals, running on a platform of
"cut and run" (with the approval of the major foreign powers), were
poised to sweep into power in the midterm elections.

2006?

How about 1862?

The President was Lincoln, but the script is identical.

Democrats. Treasonous surrender-monkeys for 144 years.

Since something less than half of the eligible voters actually voted
in
the last midterm and the results were razor thin margins in most
races
that changed hands, maybe 25% of the eligible voters voted consistent
with anti Iraq war position. If you think that vote represents "a

(the Sunni's) for us so we don't have too. I hope that Bush will use his

No it wasn't, peejay. But you are not knowledgeable enough to argue the
point. All you can do feverishly search the net for yet another article to
copy/paste. You know next to nothing about the history of your country as
well as knowing very little about the events that occurred in your own
lifetime. I already pointed out to you on another thread that Lincoln's
own Republican colleagues were very much against him, that at one time he
could not even get his cabinet to support him. What turned the tide in
his favour was VICTORY. Bush has nothing to offer the American people but
DEFEAT. What he will do is hangon in Iraq and present the incoming
President with no option but to get out of Iraq a.s.a.p.

So what you're saying is that something less than 25% were voting for a
pro-war position.

Dark-matter deficit
Passing through you every second
Back to Story - Help

April 26, 2007
Reuters

The legs are long, the eyes are big, the bodies curvaceous.

Contestants in this Saudi-style beauty pageant have all the features
you might expect anywhere else in the world, but with one crucial
difference -- the competitors are camels.

This week, the Qahtani tribe of western Saudi Arabia has been
welcoming entrants to its Mazayen al-Ibl competition, a parade of the
"most beautiful camels" in the desolate desert region of Guwei'iyya,
120 km (75 miles) west of Riyadh.

"In Lebanon they have Miss Lebanon," jokes Walid, moderator of the
competition's Web site. "Here we have Miss Camel."

While tremendous oil wealth has brought rapid modernisation to the
desert state of Saudi Arabia, the camel remains celebrated as a symbol
of the traditional nomadic lifestyle of Bedouin Arabs.

Throughout history camels have served multiple purposes as food,
friend, transport and war machine. They were key to the Arab conquests
of the Middle East and North Africa nearly 1,400 years ago that
brought Islam to the world.

Camels are also big business in a country where strict Islamic laws
and tribal customs would make it impossible for women to take part in
their own beauty contest.

Delicate females or strapping males who attract the right attention
during this week's show could sell for a million or more riyals.
Sponsors have provided 10 million riyals (1.36 million pounds) for the
contest, cash that also covers the 72 sports utility vehicles to be
will be awarded as prizes.

"Bedouin Arabs are intimately connected to camels and they want to
preserve this heritage. The importance of this competition is that it
helps preserve the pure-breds," said Sheikh Omair, one of the tribe's
leaders,

"We have more than 250 owners taking part and more than 1,500 camels,"
he said inside a huge tent where the final awards ceremony takes
place.

Over at the camel pen, the contestants are getting restless as the
desert wind howls and whips up swirls of sand in the hot afternoon
sun.

Amid a large crowd of Bedouin who have gathered to watch, the head of
the judging committee emerges to venture into an enclosure with some
two dozen angry braying camels.

Camel-drivers sing songs of praise to their prized possessions as they
try to calm the animals down.

"Beautiful, beautiful!" the judge mutters quietly to himself,
inspecting the group. Finalists have been decorated with silver bands
and body covers.

"The nose should be long and droop down, that's more beautiful,"
explains Sultan al-Qahtani, one of the organisers. "The ears should
stand back, and the neck should be long. The hump should be high, but
slightly to the back."

The camels are divided into four categories according to breed -- the
black majaheem, white maghateer, dark brown shi'l and the sufur, which
are beige with black shoulders. Arabic famously has over 40 terms for
different types of camel.

Some females have harnesses strapped around their genitalia to thwart
any efforts by the males to mount them. One repeat offender called
Marjaa has been moved away.

"This one would fetch a million!" says Hamad al-Sudani, a camel-
driver, admiring the heavy stud, or fahl.

<What turned the tide in his (Lincoln's) favour was VICTORY

Which came about only due to costly mistakes on the part of the
Confederacy and it took place after 1862 and after Lincoln's party had
lost control of the Congress.


Chronologies:

June 25-July 1 1862: · Seven Days' Battles in Virginia end in defeat
and retreat for Union

August 29-30, 1862: · Union forces routed at Second Manassas (Bull
Run)

December 13, 1862: · Union forces routed at Battle of Fredericksburg

May 1-4, 1863: · Union forces routed at Chancellorsville

July 1-3, 1863: · Union forces victorious at Battle of Gettysburg
(Pickets Charge)

July 12-15, 1863: · Draft riots occur in New York City

Chronology of The Atlanta Campaign

July 17 1864

President Davis relieves Johnston of command and places John Bell Hood
in charge

Confederate troops are demoralized by the loss of their beloved
leader, considered a major blunder of impatience by Davis by many.

September 3 1864

Sherman wires Washington "Atlanta is ours, and fairly won..."


November 8, 1864: Lincoln re-elected president, defeating the
Democrat, McClellan, who was previously projected to win on a war
weary platform to allow the Confederacy its independence.

November 15, 1864: · Sherman burns Atlanta, begins infamous march to
the sea.

Yep, the Repubs were making a fortune doing business with Hitler, so they

Admit it, rightists are despicable, gutless chicken hawks.

Why aren't you in Iraq? Are you too fat? Too stupid? Too feeble and old?
Too cowardly?

All of the above?

Maybe you're one of the endless list of right wing sex perverts:

Evangelicals, denounced gays and illegal drugs but was later exposed
as a gay Crystal Meth user.

Republican Congressman Mark Foley abruptly resigned from Congress after
"sexually explicit" emails surfaced showing him flirting with a 16-year old

Not any more, alas! Our greatest enemy is not the moron in
the White House but the apathy of the American voters, and

failed to recognize Hitler for what he was!)
